Multiple Frames of Reference Are Used During the Selection and Planning of a Sequential Joint Action
Co-actors need to anticipate each other's actions to successfully perform joint actions. The frames of reference (FOR) used to simulate a co-actor's action could impact what information is anticipated. We hypothesized that co-actor's would adopt their co-

Glass fiber-reinforced polymer (GFRP) bars are emerging as a potential replacement for steel rebars due to their vulnerability to corrosion. However, the shear behavior of GFRP bars is not well established, especially in functionally graded self ...

Shear and punching shear according to the Critical Shear Crack Theory: background, recent developments and integration in codes [PDF]
The Critical Shear Crack Theory (CSCT) has been developed since 1985 to assess the shear resistance of members without shear reinforcement and the punching shear resistance of reinforced concrete slabs in a rational manner.

Nonlinear Bond Model for the Dowel Action considering the Fatigue Damage Effect
To investigate the mechanical properties of dowel action under fatigue loads, 3 reinforced concrete specimens with different bar diameters (12 mm, 20 mm, and 25 mm) were subjected to the fatigue loading and were designed to investigate the attenuation ...

Object grasping and manipulation in capuchin monkeys (genera Cebus and Sapajus) [PDF]
The abilities to perform skilled hand movements and to manipulate objects dexterously are landmarks in the evolution of primates. The study of how primates use their hands to grasp and manipulate objects in accordance with their needs sheds light on how ...
